A pencil, at daybreak, was the best producer for me this year.

Be encouraging, not discouraging

IMO it is the best schoolie lure there is. I have also caught some bigger fish on them but not many.

rwilhelm, The cocahoe is THE best I've ever used for schoolies. I hear it works on bigger fish and that the queen size is good also. The 3" pearl is something else though! It is the only thing I use in the spring.

K-E-V-I-N- That wild color on the Tattoo - Someone gave me a small surface swimmer in that color and I laughed at it as I put it in my bag. About two weeks later I was fishing and catching pretty good when I tried to find something in my bag that they wouldn"T HIT. Well I put on this tattoo danny with the wild color combo and continued to hawk the fish until the hooks were mangled. I went home , changed the hooks and have been catching fish on it all season. One night I had a 28 pounder on it right at dark before switching to eels.

Yup pearl is my favorite color too. About 8 years ago I was fishing Middlebridge and not catching anything. An old timer came up to me as I was leaving and handed me a cocahoe. He said try these next time you go. Well sure enough I did and I caught fish after fish. Really nice guy named Ernie, he was the one that introduced the cocahoe to south county. I think he is still fishing, I believe I saw him in Sept fishing the wall in gansett.
